1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Heart failure is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the world. Heart transplantation is still the gold standard therapy despite emerging treatment options. Due to the limited number of available donors, the use of ventricular assist devices has increased. However, increasing incidences of complications are observed with using these devices. In this article, surgical treatment of a huge mobile thrombus formation in an inflow cannula due to ineffective anticoagulation in a 59 year-old man who received a HeartWare ventricular assist device because of ischemic cardiomyopathy is presented.
